- Cayenne: What a NOOB
- Zessica: Get moved aside
- Shred: Kickass, but so gay
- Andy: Shame, he had to leave the spot
- Kagura: Shipping him with Mikono, 'cuz he's badass

So the three forms are Evol, Gepard and Spada? Neat.

The scene near the beginning with Amata and Kagura was amazingly done. This show is so damn good.

I've never watched the first season of Aquarion, but I assume that there are many different forms of Aquarion depending on who's the head.

Loving it so far. Shrade's element power is quite scary, and I seriously hope he ain't dead yet.

And I wouldn't be surprised if Andy not getting to union with a girl will become a running gag or something, though seeing as his element power is digging holes, I also wouldn't be surprised if his Aquarion form looks like the Gurren Lagann lol.

Actually there were only three forms:

Aquarion Mars, Aquarion Solar and Aquarion Luna...And one more which was some kind of mix of Sol and Luna = Aquarion Soluna

So Evol, Gepard and Spada should be it....unles there is Gespada or something


lol Am I the only one that thinks that this Shrade guy is annoying XD

THIS!!!! Kagura is soooooo AWESOME. although his quote of " My smelly woman" seems kinda...wild, LOOOL.

And seriously this show´s Ending gotta be one of the best anime endings ive ever listened!

Shrade seems to be a character taken from Uta no prince sama, dont ask me why.

The first season is better, missing most of the cringe worthy dialog found in this one that makes it pretty clear they are targeted a very young audience.

The series is pretty decent so far, but some of the dialog is just VERY bad. Particularly the stuff that has to do with "Forbidden Meetings" and "eww cooties."

what, really? I'm finding Evol's writing to be substantially better than the first season's. Actually, I'm finding pretty much everything about it to be much, much better. Was originally irked that Amata was a total pansy compared to Apollo, but Kagura's making up for that.

Also, I just got the connection between Apollo's superhuman smelling and Kagura's smell thing. Herp.

Also also, holy crap how is this anime so freaking BEAUTIFUL. It's probably one of the nicest looking anime I've ever watched, only trumped by Makoto Shinkai movies.

I really hate Kagura as he is just a stupid ass.
Completley ignoring Mikonos feelings an so on.
I hope Amata will beat the crap out of Kagura.
Anyway good episode - but I still can't come to really like that anime.
What disturbs me the most are these "union" scenes which just look like some crappy fanservice and totally out of place in that otherwise kind of serious anime.

BUT I FELL IN LOVE WITH THE ENDING SINCE I FIRST HEARD IT !
THE ENDING IS ONE OF THE BEST I KNOW OF ALL ANIME !

Agreed..

Also.. I'm starting to think Amata is just an embodiment of Apollo's power. Cause seriously.. In Sousei no Aquarion, the powers were "similar" but.. not on his feet, like freaking Hermes. Kagura is -just- like Apollo though.

For those who haven't seen or have forgotten, in Sousei no Aquarion, Scorpius, Celiane, and Apollonius' reincarnations all looked just like them, same hair and eye color. The only one who's fitting that bill in this new series so far is Kagura. Hell the only one who reminds me of Silvia/Celiane thus far was Mix.

Maybe the dropped the "comparison" thing in the new series, maybe they didn't. But either way..the story's pretty dumb to me this time. Just trying to appeal more to the younger people..

this episode!!! omg!!! i dont know why, but i would like to see more KaguraxMikono! He's so alike to Apollo o_o i mean... he is harsh and all that.. amata surprised me with grabbing Mikono from Kagura, which was a good thing! xD i was losing my hopes in Amata...

Shrade seems to be a little too crazy... i dont really like that, and i cant imagine which incarnation he is... <_< Zessica... she's a little bitchy.. but i can live with that...

anyways, great episode! cant wait for next week! ;)

Shrade, I really hope he's alright and not in a too serious condition. Good man he is.

Kagura looks cool but he seems crazy lol. Don't like the way he is acting atm. Great to see Amata protect his girl, running in there to save Mikono before Kagura had a chance to get away. He's really getting better in my eyes. Wonder what these three's relation is.

Next episode looks like its about Zessica, nice. As long as it doesn't hurt Mikono's relationship with Amata, I am looking forward to it. I just know its gunna be funny, lol make him fly again.

I really love the ED, and the OP is pretty good too. Great soundtracks in this anime, can't wait for them to be released.

I am also nearly convinced that the plot of this series is a cheap repeat of the first season.

If Amata, Kagura and Mikono have the same relationship they did in the first season (particularly the two guys), I am done as i've seen it already.

Most disappointing episode of the show so far.

The dialogue was pitiful -- "You stink!', "You don't stink! Me kill! Maybe."

Then there is the constant invasions that don't go anywhere. And robot fights that never quite finish but just as they are about to, somebody interferes and drags the invader away yet again.

The fake drama and tension -- "But Schrade! You'll die!" "All right. Mission approved." This series is re-defining predictable.

While I suppose it's good to see that Schrade can be somewhat useful, even that was only pretend.

And to top it off, there was no Mix, little Zessica and barely any Mikono, who wisely spent most of the episode unconscious. But while she was spared being bored to death, what is likely the most fun skirt since Railgun or Saki hung as lifelessly as this episode did.

At this point, I don't even mind if Mikono is ending with Kagura, I mean, he is the reincarnation of Appolo right? That's why Mikono is feeling sad... He doesn't seems like a really bad bad guy in fact, he just doesn't know how to speak correctly...

The guy got the girl back, and the musician guy is not just strong in his power on music, but also defense? He has the same stinkyness as the girl??

Musician guy only got used once and died?? No! He was creepily funny, though, when united. Both him and the main guy were so conveniently got invited to Aquarions.

Oh wow, Kagura beats the worst of those forceful shoujo manga male characters by now, he's kinda cool with those abilities but lame with his childlish attitude at the same time too.
Well, Shrade was damn awesome this episode, i hope he doesn't die, though that wouldn't possibly get him a lot of screentime in the future. Also Amata manned up a bit, let him keep going this way.
Some delicious Zessica next episode, can't wait.

pretty clear that shrade is sirius' reincarnation.
Sirius and his obsession with beautiful things (the rose battle).
Shrade's smell being similar.. Sirius was split off of apollonius' waifu, and its basically accepted that mikono is her reincarnation.
They mentioned darkness in shrade; Sirius was all the dark lingering feelings, etc, that led to his betrayal.


Wonder why Amata didn't have any smell.. is it just because people tend to not notice when they themselves smell like things? (seeing as how they are obviously both parts from apollonius)

What? So Shrade dies just like that? Seems kind of underwhelming. But next episode has such delicious Zessica all over it. Hopefully she becomes more fleshed out and becomes a more central character. She's not doing much right now but being that sexy fanged tooth scantily clad boobs and token female third wheel.

KaitoDash said:

I wasn't quoting verbatim, as that would have required re-watching the episode. But it felt like the majority of Kagura's lines were about whether someone stunk or not, and whether he ought to kill them or not.

But, to confirm that I wasn't exaggerating too much, I pulled this from the subs from around the 3-4 minute marks.

You stink. You stink deliciously.
<…>
Let Mikono go!
Where's your smell? You don't… You don't smell at all.
Why the hell don't you have a smell? Hey, mind if I kill you?

And as to the second quote, this exchange took place around the 18 minute mark.

Chairman Crea, requesting permission for Union.
Shrade! You can't!
I'm ready to die. If I can't play Aquarion, I might as well be a dead man walking.
Union authorized! Shrade Elan, you're the head!

And since I ended up re-watching the bits around the quotes, I may as well point out some other events that caught my attention.

Prior to the stink dialogue, Kagura was able to effortlessly launch himself onto the rooftop, take Mikono away from Amata, and then the first time Amata attempts to retrieve her, kick him away with scarcely a thought. But the second time Amata makes the attempt, he is able to knock Kagura to the ground, secure Mikono, and then leap off the building's edge — all without Kagura even responding. Did Kagura fall asleep after sniffing Amata? Even if he had mentally let his guard down for a moment, Amata yelled his intentions before charging in.

Meanwhile, Mikono, presumably unconscious, somehow lands perfectly on Amata's back. So perfectly, that he is able to immediately run and leap off the building without dislodging her. They then plummet for what was probably a few hundred feet without her even shifting on his back.

I call shenanigans!

I think Amata is... Sirius reicarnation :)

1. He have wings. Only members of Alisia family gets real wings.
2. No reaction bangles when they 'love'. Fudou called that feeling as love and Kagura/Mikoto as forbidden meeting. This is very similar to story of first series: Silvia and Sirius are siblings... originally one person Celiane. It's not romantic love... but fraternal love. And then Kagura... Apollo come into view. No his and Silvia's love at the first time.

So Amata is ending with Zessica. She is probably Reika reincarnation because she is interested in main character and fought in first battle. And she has totally opposite temperament to original. Reika was shy and dressed men's clothing. Zessica is daring and like sexy bikini :D

Well in my opinion I think shrade remind me of sirius more than amata though.. maybe because they have the same shade hair colour and their attitude are a bit familiar..

Thing is Mikono already have a bro, who practically redefines a sister complex to the point that he has continuous prophecies of her.

Other than the fact that Amata can fly, which I think Apollo also have those symbolic wings at some point as well, there really isn't that much similarity. Their personalities are pretty different too.

I don't think the directors are really making that big of a deal in terms of reincarnation. Then again this is often late reveals so don't think too hard on it imo, people will just confuse those who haven't seen the prequel.

Anyways, first night scenery I think of the city with sparkling lights. Beautiful, as always.
